 After 
   # aptitude remove hpoj
 I still have the following on my system:
 
 t...@h ~ ls -l /etc/init.d/hpoj
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 45517 2008-10-08 14:24 /etc/init.d/hpoj
 t...@h ~ ls -l /etc/rc4.d/S19hpoj
 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2009-03-03 23:34 /etc/rc4.d/S19hpoj - 
 ../init.d/hpoj

This is the correct behaviour.

 So at each boot hpoj still tries to start. dpkg --purge hpoj fixes
 it, but should not be neccesary.

The symlinks should be left behind until the package is purged (the
enabled/disabled status is configuration), but the script should not
do anything if the package have been removed.

Here is a patch to fix it.

Bug#518074: hpoj: Package remove fails to remove init script

[Thue Janus Kristensen]

Package: hpoj
Version: Package remove fails to remove init script
Severity: normal

After 
  # aptitude remove hpoj
I still have the following on my system:

t...@h ~ ls -l /etc/init.d/hpoj
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 45517 2008-10-08 14:24 /etc/init.d/hpoj
t...@h ~ ls -l /etc/rc4.d/S19hpoj
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2009-03-03 23:34 /etc/rc4.d/S19hpoj - ../init.d/hpoj

So at each boot hpoj still tries to start. dpkg --purge hpoj fixes it,
but should not be neccesary.

The version of hpoj I installed and uninstalled was 0.91-14

Regards, Thue
